@Marty, isn't that the truth! Inevitably, as soon as I pick it up the next time I spot a missed wing or pair. |

Hoo--HOOO! This was a good one. Two URs with some tough-to-spot naked pairs (26). |

Yeoks, I did it your way. There were a lot of numbers eliminated with just basics.
Happy Fourth to all! |

I did exactly what Early Earl did, but it took me forever! Good puzzle. |

Geez, I take a break from Sudoku for a few weeks and look what happens to the Forum!
LOL!
Good puzzle too. |

Clement and I used the same steps on this one. It seemed to fall apart quite easily. |

Wow, you and I took different paths for a change, Clement!
I used a XYZ-wing on 267 and then a super-duper XY-wing 125, which eliminated three 2's in box 5.
Happy Bank Holiday/Memorial Day! |

A la Keith. I liked those two X-wings on 1, right in a row. |

Or How about
UR with 43 forcing 8 r6c2. Maybe the purists may not like it as much
Hey, that's the one I used. UR is as pure as the driven snow! |

Geez, Keith, you had to go and point that out, didn't you! My problem is a lack of patience: Once I find a wing of any sort, I just don't feel like going back and doing the meticulous basics all o ... |

Two xy-wings for me, just like yeoks: 156 and 125. There was also an xyz-wing 568 but it wasn't necessary. |

You're absolutely right, MM; I realized soon after I posted it that "Havant" is where a friend from my University days now lives...
*Havard's* piece is not only brilliant but also fun. |

A small variation on Dan
1.UR 27
2.XY Wing <469>
I used one more step than MM: x-wing on 7 to start off with. |

Ditto what you used, Marty, except I think your UR was gilding on the lily. |

I don't quite see it like that: It just depends which "tool" you happen to see first. For me it was XY-567, then the much-mentioned XY-127. Does one start at the top or the bottom? It's arbi ... |
